Also Boots is an original emcee.. Zach De La Rocha though a great vocalist and intelligent lyricist definitely owes much of his rhymestyle to Chuck D and Run DMC.
Fffffffuuuuuuuuuuuck! Tom is one of the only current guitarists who is doing anything innovative. Just awesome. And I love how he hold his guitar so high , like the Jermaine Jackson playing bass ;)
Zach's great, but that's ridiculous - Boots is just as intelligent as Zach - smart isn't judged by how many authors, etc. that you reference (although I do love "stand at attention devil dirge - you'll never survive choosing sides against the wretched of the earth") and if you listen to The Coup, Boots pumps out some great, artful lyrics ("let's make heaven right here just in case they're wrong."). Awesome.
boots isn't Zack, never will be. Not even close. Zack's way smarter, more energetic, and made crowds mosh while yelling "fuck you I won't do what you tell me."
It's all about SSSC and One Day as a Lion. Boots isn't trying to be smarter than anybody. I don't think Tom said "hey Boots, I know you're no Zach De La Rocha, but, Fuck it. Let's make something anyway!" The shit's still real and badass.
stop bugging me about retarded democratic slaves. these guys are only interested in pussy-footing with politicians and they actually think they're going to win the fight that way.... it's pretty pathetic. It's like giving flowers to a rabid dog. i think you know what to do with a rabid dog.
That's a terrible comment. He can do many different tricks with the guitar. Plus, the man is a master of the instrument. He used to practice 8 hours a day.
He's a genius and all yes. My favorite guitarist of all time. But there's no way to master an instrument entirely. He said himself that the electric guitar is a relatively new instrument and we still have losta stuff to figure out about it. But he definitely revolutionized the instrument.
I'm all for this new album. RATM is fucking awesome, and I would love to see some kind of Audioslave reunion in the future. The folk stuff was really good too, but fusing with a classic like Boots is a genius idea! I'm going to buy the album, or most likely download it illegally... But still! I just hope they stop wearing outfits on stage, cause that's just too much...
It's the Rage style, but with a less talented band who has a greater love for monotonous music. I love RATM, and really hope they release another album, but I'm glad I listened to this before rushing out and buying the album. Tom should've done better... it's not AWFUL, it's just not great like it should be.
Heard radio interview the other night (after this song was played) -both Boots & Tom were in the studio. They took calls from listeners...Tom is VERY down to earth/genuine !
and for the record, he is a MUSICIAN. yes, he is politically driven. he has a conscious. he has a message. he is NOT che guevara . deal with it.
do you think soldiers tour around playing great music, as well as killing people? no.
music is morello's speciality, so let him specialise in it FOR FUCKS SAKE!
disagree with me? then ask yourself why you're replying to a youtube comment, when you should be wearing a beret and fighting for freedom and equality.
a band is not a political party. Their message was meant to inspire people to make a change for the better, and to a certain extent i think it has. while one band cannot be attributed to the rise of a certain political movement, artists and musicians like RATM, SSCC and countless others are necessary in a society that thrives on freedom of speech and expression. if you want change, put your money where your fucking mouth is.
I like the intensity, though not as intense as Zach, he still gets the crowd going. Also how he moves around while rapping is pretty cool. Tom is still great too. I just hope they stay together and don't quit after 1 album
...Find me another rapper that uses as much energy as boots pulls off in a show...Did you not see,the man NOT stop the james brown pimp swagger dancin' the whole damn time ;-P...Beats grabbin your over sized pants and chain all night...LOL
what was the message then and how has it changed? I want someone to respond with something besides "uh, i dont know. it just did." its pretty obvious.
There is no difference in the message except in the amount of lazy people still sitting at home fifteen years later talking about it instead of living it. this music isn't good. it's downright boring.
what have boots riley or tom morello done to fix this world anyway other than rile people up and sit back down when they feel like it?
When there is NO 'difference' in the WORLD,Whyyy would 'the message' change?!...
...And...Instead of asking 'what have they done',first of all...FIGURE it out,before you say it does not exist...Go to google earth,type in "boots riley".and just see how many organizations and educational fields that pop up connected to the man...And second of all,Let us know,WHAT it is that YOU DO thats any better than them?!...Peace ;-)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
dude, figure it out for yourself. i've looked into it and he hasn't literally "done" anything! I've literally stood and protested a group of nazis and their political chief who was indicted for Molestation and Child abuse in Madison, Wisconsin. what do you stand for? like i say often, you can get caught and trapped in words or you can be freed by your actions.
*Figure It Out For Your Self*?...What exactly am i "figuring out" that i don't allready know?!...And im not around here for a "what have you done" pissing contest...Im sure you enjoyed your police protection from the nazi's ;-)...Tom And Boots are MUSICIANS,and people like to forget about that a little too often...
Traveling across ALL of north america with the coup...charging 12$ for a 3hour concert,and than donating some of EVERY ticket to local charitys...Meanwhile having your tour bus flip/roll and loose everything you made along the way,while no one pulls over to help...I doubt ANY youtibe keyboard jockey has that type of dedication...LOL
man it hurts watching tom go this direction. i say this because i'm looking through the eyes of a RATM fan. i think tom was better as the watchman than with this wanna be zack dela rocha. atleast he had a messege while solo, and an even greater messege with RATM. Zack put in so much in his songs and sang them with anger; the only way to speak of the system. I saw RATM live at coachella and I will never forget. I only hope you are happy Tom. Peace.
He isn't a wanna be by any means... 2 totally different styles of flow and these songs are supposed to be more anthetic... That was their reasoning for making this album. Songs for the revolution! They are contributing to the cause you represent! So what are you so upset about? Accept and appreciate that Tom hasn't sold out... He is stil making great music and fighting the good fight. His message hasn't changed!
I was at this show..as a big rage fan, gotta say, very disappointed in morello's set. Boots opened, and shit was it good. This was the end of the night and for me still it's boots keepin it live
If you think the music sucks, then LEAVE IT THE HELL ALONE so the rest of us who like it can enjoy it. We all have different tastes in music so just go listen to some other stuff instead of saying how awful they are.
but you have to understand that it is just the same thing over and over again....doesn't it get annoying, or are you all to busy having sex with your cousins to notice?
Um, I don't understand what the incest joke had to do with anything but no it doesn't get annoying. You can call me a loser and say I have no musical taste all you want but it doesn't change the fact that I like their repetitive style.
This show was their first show- about 8 months ago. Watch their new clips on youtube if you wanna see how much crazy energy they all have- especially Boots.
well if they did im sure they would lol just give it time and enjoy the music between it and you will find those small bits in this music that will remind u of rage
Wow you're a fucking idiot. If you think Tom is all effects then don't listen to his music fucktard. And boots? Boots has more energy and an actual good voice opposed to zach's screaming. Also that's what sets Tom apart from all the other shit of just normal sounding chords or scales, he mixes that shit up with effects making it sound unqiue, if you think this sounds exactly like rage you are retarded.
first of all....it does sound exactly like a rage song that is already out... I mean how many riffs can you make using hammer ons on the 5th and 7th fret...if you actually played guitar you would understand how boring it is to hear a guitarist never advance or do anything new and just keep pumping out the same stuff year after year after year....atleast audioslave and nightwatchmen were different...this is just Rage 2 and you know it....also he does use the same normal sounding chords and scales
I know exactly what I am talking about....if you actually understood anything about music and musical progression you would understand that this is shit
whoah sour grapes? First off, Boots Riley is the man; The Coup has put out some awesome stuff dude. To just automatically shun it as crap because your pissed Rage isn't getting back together is shit dude. Listen to the words he's saying, perfectly compliments Morello's playing
im not pissed rage isn't getting back together....good band in the 90s and that's all they ever will be to me. I'd like to see them tour but no new material its just beating a dead horse. and as for boots, im sure he rules in whatever else he does. gotta say one thing though Morello's solo at about 4:30 is pretty good.. then he ruins it again with the shitty riff and that everythang song done live acoustically blows as well.
Hope this shit gets overplayed on the radio and everyone hates it.
2: It's Tom Morello with Boots Riley, they've formed a group called "Street Sweeper (Social Club)" where they make new funkadelic songs with new revolutionary fervour...Cant wait till the album is released here in Norway.
I love the coup, and I love tom morello...why havn't I heard of this?! man, they're debut album should be tight, and I only found out about this maybe five minutes ago, ha.
Faggots gringos you only know the terms that you read in the books, or in the internet, you don't live in Socialism or comunism so shut the fuck up, if you don't live in Cuba or Venezuela you can shut the fuck up you`re faggot mouth. asdqwezxc69
Just tell him to research the countries Norway, Sweden and Denmark...We all live in socialism.
Norway(where i am from) for example has been the richest country in the world for 7 years in a row (ended last year, but due to the economic crisis we're swiftly back on top soon)while america is several billion dollars in dept, Norway has the worlds best healthcare+its free, we are the country with the biggest percentage of the population on the ideal weight...
I know, but if i had written that people would just have taken me for a Bill O' Rielly kinda guy who just made up a fact on his own...10 trillion is both a round and exact number so it seems unlikely, and if i had gone even more close to what the number really is it would have sounded like i was just throwing numbers together, so i said "billions"...but yeah, i could've said "trillions" instead.
then get the F@$K out and move to norway. be a big boy and live for yourself and not your dad. pretty simple. the USA doesn't want or need you anyways.
Who is the fucking asshole that support Hugo Chávez?, when he living in a capitalist country, duhhh, that is so retarded when you live here in Venezuela talk about, this theme, fucking gringo.
There is no reason to compare any of Tom's past work to this... Or even compare de la Rocha's One Day as a Lion experiment. It is all great music and we all like it... Their messages are the true power to their music.
dude, che guevara is beyond awesome. if someone is a retard thats YOU for not knowing what socialism stands for. i dare to go to may day next year in LA and say that out loud see if your butt gets out alive.
Socialism is a FAILURE go live in venezuela for a year and see if hugo lets you live. although you would probably take it in the ass from hungry hungry hugo. if socialism is so great why is it that socialist countries are 3rd world? Cuba will never even be close to what Capitalist countries are. so wax your uni-brow take your take your pill, get your helmet and box of crayons buy a hot dog and go fuck yourself......I am Washing my hands of this non sense for good.
Socialism on paper looks beautiful but in practice sux major ball balls. and che is a murdering mo fo. even if it was for the 'revolution'. the soviets failed and no true freedom. in socialist coubtries you would b killed for speaking against the gov. not here in the states. weather the current admin sux or not you cant still speak out against it and live. you can even burn the american flag and not go to jail. (which is something i'd never do)
Socialism on paper realy looks beautiful. But if u had read it u would see that it never happened in the real world, no matter what Castro, Pol Pot, URSS's leaders, etc. says. Socialism never happened. If it looks utopic, it should be putted with the others "should be" theories of the Social Science and not be rejected like that.
Exactly. The reason that capitalism works for humans is becuase of their greedy and violent nature. If humans ever improved, then socialism is what we should strive for, not reject.
i had more respect for tom when he was with audio slave, he sure knows how to fuck his fans over u went from a revolution to full blown crack head. b a man n stand for the people ur a sell out.
excuse me? what in the hell are you talking about? if anything he sold out in audioslave. they were radio rock with a Morello edge. he's going back to his rage roots here.
citgetit you must be retarded. Audioslave was a bullshit radio pop band. He sold out then, then he must of realized it, or made enough money to fund his purposes
There is NOT a single god damn thing about Tom Morello OR Boots Riley,that 'says' crackhead man...Connecting with boots is the least you could possibly do too "sell out"
It's good, but i wouldn't say it's as good as audioslave. Alot of people are unaware of the number of great songs audioslave produced, especially in the Revelations album.
I saw this song live in Toronto 2008 and it was awesome! Looking forward to the street sweeper social clubs new album coming out this year. ps he was also sick the day of the show but till gave it 110%, hand down my favorite guitarist
Boots and Tom are awesome.

I'd like to see them tour but no new material its just beating a dead horse. and as for boots, im sure he rules in whatever else he does. gotta say one thing though Morello's solo at about 4:30 is pretty good.. then he ruins it again with the shitty riff and that everythang song done live acoustically blows as well.
Hope this shit gets overplayed on the radio and everyone hates it.

1: It's written "The Coup" prenounced "The Cou-".
2: It's Tom Morello with Boots Riley, they've formed a group called "Street Sweeper (Social Club)" where they make new funkadelic songs with new revolutionary fervour...Cant wait till the album is released here in Norway.

Norway(where i am from) for example has been the richest country in the world for 7 years in a row (ended last year, but due to the economic crisis we're swiftly back on top soon)while america is several billion dollars in dept, Norway has the worlds best healthcare+its free, we are the country with the biggest percentage of the population on the ideal weight...

I know, but if i had written that people would just have taken me for a Bill O' Rielly kinda guy who just made up a fact on his own...10 trillion is both a round and exact number so it seems unlikely, and if i had gone even more close to what the number really is it would have sounded like i was just throwing numbers together, so i said "billions"...but yeah, i could've said "trillions" instead.

Socialism on paper looks beautiful but in practice sux major ball balls. and che is a murdering mo fo. even if it was for the 'revolution'. the soviets failed and no true freedom. in socialist coubtries you would b killed for speaking against the gov. not here in the states. weather the current admin sux or not you cant still speak out against it and live. you can even burn the american flag and not go to jail. (which is something i'd never do)

Socialism on paper realy looks beautiful. But if u had read it u would see that it never happened in the real world, no matter what Castro, Pol Pot, URSS's leaders, etc. says. Socialism never happened. If it looks utopic, it should be putted with the others "should be" theories of the Social Science and not be rejected like that.

Exactly. The reason that capitalism works for humans is becuase of their greedy and violent nature. If humans ever improved, then socialism is what we should strive for, not reject.
